“The intensity of the pressure to silence Palestinian Canadian voices and discredit this exhibit says a great deal about exactly why the exhibit is necessary in the first place,” said Béla Gyarmati, Chief Shop Steward, UNE Local 50773. “Since the exhibit opened, the museum, its leadership, and our members have faced sustained pressure from elected officials and internationally organized advocacy campaigns calling for the exhibit to be altered, condemned, or removed. Our local rejects this pressure and the disingenuous accusations that members are contributing to antisemitism.”
